Shadowbane: Eye of Justice

Book excerpt: When Kalen Dren and Myrin Darkdance investigate a friend's disappearance in Westgate, they find that all is not as it seems At long last Kalen “Shadowbane” Dren has given up a life of crime to join Myrin on a journey to the city of Westgate. But although Kalen is leaving his vigilante past behind, his high-stakes adventures are far from over—and there are enemies who still yearn to see him fall. Moreover, rumor has it that others have adopted his guise and now deal with violence on their own terms. The two adventurers leave Luskan for Westgate in search of Kalen's former apprentice, who they fear is dead. As the pair scours the city, seeking answers to Kalen's disappearance and to their own destinies, they find that the rumors about the vigilantes are true. But who are these wannabe "Shadowbanes" who wield the vaunted sword Vindicator? Myrin and Kalen have no idea that a game is being played in which they are only pawns.
